How are old horror movies best of all time?

It's more like "faggot", which is good - or so you say.

i never said gay was good i said i could have meant that it was just you ass uming and faggot sounds nothing like vanhelsing

Just because something can be made more efficiantly or more advanced it doesn't mean that it's superior. Computers can be used to make beautiful shiny objects and even craft protraits much more realistic and colorful than the Mona Lisa and yet we know which is better. Movies are art and to truly appriciate where we are you have to have some understanding and appriciation of where we came from; or at least if you want to get into films. The only reason many of the modern films you love are around is because they were inspired by or borrowed from the classics. Sometimes these films bring ideas and inspiration to the table and that doesn't fade away throughout the years as a film may have the tendancy to do.


suburban commando is a good example because its a mixture of alien and highland and no holds barred which were all great movies that were awesome

I've already said all that, apart from the faggot and Suburban Commando bits.

I agree, what would weaken Psycho today as a movie or any classic for that matter, are the subsequent thousands of movies that have built on them. What makes a movie a true timeless classic is that it defines its moment in history as well as being entertaining and artisitic at the same time. Psycho was and is what it is because of when it was made. Had it NOT been made over 5 decades ago then it would chill today's audiences nearly as much as it did back then, but if Marty pushed his dad out of the way of that moving car his parents never would have met and he'd never exist! Time travel is too dangerous.
